WHY WE LOVE THIS BAR...

Guards Bar at Raffles London exudes timeless elegance, blending classic British style with contemporary refinement. Dark wood panelling, leather seating, and low, flattering lighting create an intimate, sophisticated atmosphere that feels both polished and welcoming. The space encourages lingering, whether for quiet conversation or socialising in small groups, with a layout that balances privacy and conviviality. Subtle detailing, from heritage-inspired décor to carefully considered textures, reinforces the bar’s sense of occasion without feeling formal. With its historic hotel setting, Guards Bar combines a sense of legacy with modern comfort. It’s a destination for those seeking a refined evening, where design, mood, and atmosphere come together to create a quintessentially London experience.
